It says Wenger is willing to spend more than £60 million ($78
million) to get a new superstar striker. His dream pick is
Lewandowski, who currently plays for Bayern Munich, but failing
that he wants Greizmann, of Atletico Madrid.

Lewandowski, who also plays for Poland, has yet to make a deal
with Arsenal because of his huge weekly wage demands. But
Greizmann, Wenger's second choice, may also be too costly for the
club given his £85 million buyout clause with Atletico Madrid,
which signed a five-year contract with the striker this summer.

Arsenal has only made one high-profile signing during this
transfer window — Granit Xhaka from Borussia Monchengladbach for
£34 million — far fewer than rivals Manchester United, Manchester
City, and Chelsea.

Wenger has recently been critical about how expensive transfer
fees have become. He said on Wednesday that United's
record-breaking signing of Paul Pogba for £89 million "ticks all
the boxes" but played into the problem that players are overvalued by rich clubs with too
much money:

"We are in a system that we don't master. We have to follow the
prices paid by other people. That has gone up because the
availability of money is much higher. That's why we may have
crossed the £100m bar for the first time. It makes the market
more unpredictable. Where you could approximately value a player
before, today the identity of a club that comes in for a
transfer is more important than the rest."

But it seems with the new Premier League on the horizon Wenger is
finally willing to play the transfer game, and either of his
choices would certainly be exciting additions to the league.
Lewandowski has scored 47 goals in 63 appearances at Dortmund,
while Griezmann has converted 44 goals in 75 appearances for
Atletico.
